Case Study

I am looking for data on deaths related to food in South Australia over the past 10 years.

The Catalogue shows an ABS journal with a complete list of causes of death available in the National Library in Canberra and I am in Adelaide. Can I read the relevant documents online?

You have found the item titled Deaths, South Australia, which appears to contain all the information needed. However, when we check the dates available, we find only the years 1969-1993 are covered, so will not conatain data from 2000 onwards.

The record shows the 'later title' was Demography, South Australia with data up to 2001. You can read these statistics (up to 2001) online at the ABS page Demography, South Australia. Use the 'Past & future releases' tab for data back to 1993. When you have chosen a year, click on the "Downloads" tab to open the report.
